they are pretty much all beat. your just trying to find one that is worth restoring. if you want to go completely stock, the STOCK windshields and ski tip rubber are probably the hardest things to find.

if you just want to ride then just worry about the motor, everything else is fairly cheap and available somewhere (ebay)
My airbox is held on by one screw, not because Im lazy but because it is less weight!
